“It’s like such a surreal moment to finally have him in our arms,” Jessica, 35, shared. “We waited so long and wanted it to happen for so many years, so to actually have him and hold him and know he’s actually ours and we’re his forever family, we’re excited.”

The infant joins big sisters Lily, Merritt, Priscilla and brother River. Jep, the youngest of Phil and Kay Robertson’s sons, took to Twitter after the show to thank fans for their support of baby Jules (nicknamed Gus after his middle name Augustus).

The news comes just a few weeks after Jep’s older brother Willie and his wife Korie announced that they’re in the process of adopting a son.
